We have actual, honest-to-goodness wet stuff in our weekend forecast. The percentages are pretty good … but we’ve seen our chances evaporate (!) before – most recently … pretty much all this winter.
Cross your fingers for us. We have actual, honest-to-goodness dust happening already (already!), and we need some moisture.
Comanche zeroes in on a (mild) challenger as shadows lengthen from the backside (north side) of Knife Edge.
We’re back in moderate drought, according to the U.S. Drought Monitor. At least one pond has some water now, but in mid-February, it’s not looking so wintry out there. Some parts of Colorado are tired of snow; we in Southwest Colorado are praying for a whole lot more.
My folks were in Colorado recently for a too-short visit. Of course, we visited mustangs. Though they left horses at home in Texas with an able caretaker, really, you can never see too many horses in a lifetime, no matter where you wander. 🙂
Thank you to everyone who sent comments to our BLM folks during the scoping period for Spring Creek Basin’s HMAP revision. We sure appreciate your time and effort on behalf of keeping our mustangs, like Cassidy Rain above, healthy, free and wild!
Today is the deadline to send your comments about BLM’s scoping request for the HMAP revision (see here for my initial blog post about the topic).
Sincere thanks to all of you who sent letters! On behalf of our amazing mustangs, we greatly appreciate it!
Who doesn’t need more snow (even in pix)?
Seriously, if you have “too much snow,” please send to Southwest Colorado. Ship it next-day air. 🙂
This photo was taken a couple of weeks ago, but I thought we could use a dose of snow, even if most of it is melted now.
And who doesn’t love a glimpse of pudgy Hollywood? 🙂
Temple is alert to the movement of another band nearby.
Lookin’ pretty brown out there in the cold season, which doesn’t bode well for our warm-season moisture.
Not to mention, of course, one of my very favorite *things*. 🙂
Tenaz does like to pose in front of the snowy La Sal Mountains, doesn’t he?
Though we’d like to see white all the way to the horizon, it’s good to see snow on those not-too-distant peaks.
I mean, really. Only if the land were covered in life-giving winter white would that be a more heavenly view.
Kwana was moseying along grazing … when he realized that his girls weren’t exactly keeping up. Rather than wait for them, he returned to them.
It really is the girls who rule the family. 😉
